Hello Investors,

Welcome to Issue #71 of Dealsletter — This week, we’re featuring a highly stable 16-unit in Walnut Creek, a turnkey duplex portfolio in Tampa, a value-packed BRRRR/house hack combo in San Diego, and a low-barrier flip in Pittsburg, CA — ideal for newer investors looking to break in with high ROI.

Let’s dive in! 👇

🚨 Note on Numbers: All calculations for investment properties are based on a 25% down payment and a current interest rate of 6.80%, unless otherwise stated. For house hacks, we assume a 5% down payment with PMI at 0.4% and a 6.24%(FHA) interest rate. We do the math so you can focus on what matters – the deals!

Walnut Creek, CA 16-Unit Instant Cash Flow + 30% Rental Upside

This Walnut Creek 16-unit checks all the boxes: stabilized cash flow, premium location, and over 30% in rental upside. With a price per unit of $218K, strong tenant appeal, and proximity to HWY 24 and I-680, this is one of the better Bay Area multi-family acquisitions we’ve seen in weeks.

Why This Is a Great Investment

You’re buying in an affluent, stable, and high-demand rental market with excellent transit access. The area has very low turnover, and these units offer charm with room for modest upgrades. The cash flow is strong (DSCR of 1.31) and there’s significant long-term appreciation baked in due to the location.

TWO Homes One Lot | BRRRR into House Hack

Two homes on one lot in San Diego’s Colina Del Sol — perfect for house hacking, BRRRR, or flipping. You can live in one unit and rent the other, all while creating instant equity through renovation. One of the strongest exit-flexibility deals we’ve featured.

Why This Is a Great Investment

This is a perfect BRRRR into house hack opportunity. You recover most of your cash at refinance, live for free in one unit, and own a property in a rapidly appreciating San Diego neighborhood. The layout and zoning allow for ADU/additional value in the future.

Low Barrier Easy House Flip

This is the kind of low-barrier, quick cosmetic flip we love — low risk, fast turn, and high return. It’s already clean and nearly rent-ready. Could even be a great “live-in flip” for a first-timer.

Why This Is a Great Investment

At just $48K in total invested cash and a projected $37K profit in 3 months, this is an ideal starter flip. Minimal work, solid ARV, and a competitive entry point in a high-demand rental city with ADU potential.
